Guard! ONE TREE ISLAND.

By JOHN BLOUNDELLE-BURTON.

come but little le previously been in the day, and was for remaining all night on the tre ind the good skipper his permission free en ugh for them to doit. Some, however, who pre- ferred their bert in the fo’castle to the sand and sbingle of the island went ick to the ship, but I was one who

‘‘Well, the night fell swift upon us, and, having slept much and refreshed ourselves during the day, we was not oversleepy at night, and so we sat talk- ing and yarning, and sometimes giving a friendly haJloo to the men on the ship, and asking them how they did, and we out rations ashore, with

fortable as with the heat we well might be, and, gradually, one by one, the men dropped off to sleep, me and a seaman named Collis being the last to keep awake, and now a strange thing hap- pened.

‘Collis and I was a-sitting side by

' side, not lying down like the rest, and | Iwas idly tossing the stones beneath us

about—aiming at a whiter one than the rest that was some feet away—when Collis turns fierce upon me and says, ‘What makes you touch my hair like that?’ and moves off a bit away from me, as though offended like.

‘**Touch your hair, mate!’ says I. ‘Why have I got three arms and hands? I am a-chucking stones, ain’t 1?’

‘Collis looked at mea moment, unbe- lieving like, and then he says, ‘All the same, you touched my hair—lifted it up like. Don’t do it no more.’

‘‘Now, Collis was the man what had been aboard to fetch the food and rum, and thinks I to myself that when at the stores he had taken a drop extra for himself. So I says no more, but only laughs. But blow me, shipmates allin this here room in Portsmouth town, if there weren’t a echo to that laugh close by into my ear. Butit were a kind of gurgling, cruel laugh, which didn’t sound like mine. At least, I hoped not. Then Collis gets up, after staring at me again for a moment, and says, says he: ‘Bos’n, good night I’ve changed my humor; I’m a-going aboard,’ and with that he starts off duwn the sand to the ship, it being now low tide, and I see him a-clamber- ing up her side by aid of a rope chucked him by the watch.

‘Well, I was a-pondering deep upon that langh I heerd, when, bust me, if I didn’t feel something a-dragging of my hairtp ina kind of manner as, when we was boys, we dragged a stone up with a sucker. Then I gives my head a wrench and so seems to get free of whatever had got hold on it, and I myself moves off a bit. Lain’t got none of them sooperstitions what most on them in our calling has, or I should have thought the island was haunted. But that, I says to myself, could not be. There wern’t no ghost up in that tree, I could make very sure, seeing as how I could see every branch of it and nearly count every leaf on it in the clear moonlight, and there was no- where else for a ghost to harbor.

‘*Then I looks down at the men, think- ing as how perhaps some on them was a-playing of a trick on us, but they was all asleep—if ever | see men asleep

It is altogether admirable when a man, by dint of sheer will, wrings a for- tune from niggardly circumstances. The world is full of instances where men have done tk1s, but never in history was this acconiplished by a weak and unhealthy man. Ill-health not only weakens every physical yiunction but ev- ery mental fac- ulty and every moral quality.

have to be a physician to understand the causes of impure blood, or its far-reaching effects. When a man’s digestion is disor- dered, his liver sluggish, his bowels inac- tive, the blood is deprived of the proper food elements, and the sluggish liver and bowels supply in their place, the foulest of poisons. The blood is the life-stream. When it is full of foul poisons, it carries and deposits them in every organ and tis-

<e:

sue of the body. Bone, sinew, muscle, and |

flesh-tissue, the brain cells and the nerve fibres are all fed upon bad, poisonous food. Serious ill-health is bound to result. The man is weakened in every fiber of his body. He is weakened physically, mentally and morally. He suffers from sick headache, distress in stomach after meals, giddiness and drowsiness, loss of appetite and sleep, bad taste in the mouth, shakiness in the morning, and dullness throughout the day, and lassitude and an indisposition to work. Sooner or later these conditions develop consumption, nervous prostration, malaria, rheumatism, or some blood or skin disease. Dr. Pierce’s Golden Medical Discovery 13 the best of all known medicines for ambi- tious. hard-working men and women. It 1s the great blood-maker and flesh-builder. It makes the appetite keen and hearty, and the digestion and assimilation perfect, the liver active, the blood pure and rich, the nerves steady, the body vigorous and the brain alert.

‘* ‘And so I do,’ Winter by name. me.’

** “To the fiend with death,’ says I; ‘get up and walk abont.’

‘** *T can’t,’ says he; ‘I can’t. I can’t move.’ And he couldn't. that man was in a kind of parlytic state, as the doctors cail it, and he could not move.

‘* *Then,’ says I, ‘this won’t do, men. This here is worse nor the storm. Let’s hail the ship.’ And with that we bailed her. ‘What cheer?’ I sings out to the man I could see on the fo’castle. ‘What cheer, shipmate?’ And he sings back: ‘All’s well abuard. What cheer, shipmate, ashore?’

‘* ‘Bad,’ answered |. ‘We think this land is infected. Teli the captain Will Winter says he’s dying.’ Well, with that we hears voices on the ship and see a lantern moving, and then the cap- tain hails us. ‘What’s this, I hear, Bunce?’ he calls to me.

‘* “Will Winter took with sickness, skipper,’ I replies, ‘and I think we are all going mad, captain. We can

says the man—Will ‘I feel death upon

- “Yes,” he began, “this is how it goes.” feel something as we can’t see a-catch- ing hold on us and a-dragging of us.’

‘**Come aboard,’ halloos’ back the skipper, ‘all on you, at onst.’ But here was a difficulty. We others could all have clambered up the ship’s side—all on us excepting Will Winter. But, as for him, he conldn’t move, and there wern’t no moving of him—and naterel, and sailorlike, we wasn’t a-going to leave him there—the more so as there was no doubt that he was like to die. You could see it in his face, friends, as he lay there under the tree—mateys, you could see it in the horror of his eyes!

‘‘However, I sends all the others down to the ship, and I halloos off to the captain, telling him that all my men was coming on board, excepting only Will Winter, who couldn’t move, and myself, who was a-going to stand by with him and help him. And of this the captain approved.

‘So off they goes to the ship, and right glad, I think, they was to do it, and, although the Loving Friend weren't a-lying more nor two cables or two ca- bles and a half’s length from the shore, I felt a bit lonesome and creepylike as I recollected that here was I on a island about which there was something most certainly strange and with a man mark- ed for death alongside of me. However. I tried to dismiss them thoughts from my mind and to see what I could do for Will. He, poor man, was now a-ly- ing flat on his back, with his eyes star- ing up to the stars through the branch- es of the tree, and with his hands a twitching convulsivelike, and he was a muttering something of which I could catch no words, or only the word ‘tree.’ But what he was talking abont. or what he wanted to say, I have never known.

‘““*What is it, shipmate?’ I said. a-bending over him and moistening his lips with some rum and water. ‘What cheer? WhatcanI dofor you?’ But be give no answer as I could under- stand, so I made him as comfortable as I could, and then I lay down near him, but away from him a bit and nearer to the sea, and so, sometimes raising myself to look at him, and wondering as to whether he would live till morning, I commended bim and myself to God—as all good, right feeling sailors should do —and so I fel] asleep.

Doctors said Incurable

But the Notary, Mr. Lemire, was cured of Kidney Disease in two months by Dr. Chase’s Kidney- Liver Pills.

It is only when thoroughly convinced of the superior merit of a remedy that public men will give their sanction.

Mr. E. H. Lemire, Notary Public, 1692 Notre Dame Street, Montreal, tells of his re- markable recovery from a severe attack of kid- ney disease. When doctors had failed, Dr. Chase's Kidney-Liver Pills saved his life. He writes: ‘‘I give this statement, first because it is only just that the merit of Dr, Chase's Kid- ney-Liver Pills should be made known, and again in order that others may profit by my experience. For years 1 suffered with kidney disease which doctors pronounced incurable, Thanks to Dr. Chase's Kidney-Liver Pills, which I have used for two months, Iam com. pletely cured. They helped me from the first, and the cure is now perfect.”

Dr. Chase’s Kidney-Liver Pills act directly on the kidneys, and through their combined influence on the kidneys and liver, cure the most complicated diseases of these delicate organs, One pilla dose. 25 cents a box at all dealers, or Edmanson, Bates & Co., Toronta,
